I have been a freelance writer for a number of years.  I've also been fortunate enough to merge my love of writing with golf, one of my other favorite things to do.  I've been involved in the game of golf, in one form or another, since I was a teenager; as a player, course manager, club vice-president, youth golf coach, and writer.

Presently, in addition to my articles here at Howtodothings.com, I am the Golf Feature Writer for Suite101.com, contributor to GolfersMD.com and iGolf.com, and I publish a golf travel blog (SuiteGolfTravel.blogspot.com) and two other websites (GolfReviewNews.com and GolfWrite.com), both of which are in their infancy (and likely will remain so for some time). 

I live in Lexington, Kentucky with my wife and two children.

Feel free to contact me with any questions or article ideas.

My family.  Rather, having enough money to put my kids through college and still be able to retire.
